In this episode, Gail, Catherine, and Susan discuss: Susan’s journey from a provincial upbringing in the 1950s to being at the front of major movements--starting in the mid-1960s--women’s rights, civil rights, student rights, anti-war (Vietnam) protests, and labor organizing. Listen to Susan’s fascinating story as she moves in Chicago circles from women’s consciousness raising groups to raising awareness about sex trafficking; as she brings her love of jazz and rhythm tap to supporting youth in the arts; and as she confronts the reality of mortality by promoting Compassion and Choices, part of the movement in medical aid in dying. Key Take-Aways: While age is just a number, pay attention to the realities of your energy levels. Commit to what you care most about and stay engaged…and don’t take on too much! We can drive toward positive change at any age. "Throughout my life, I've gravitated toward instances of injustice and movements for social justice change." - Susan Munaker Oppenheimer  Susan Recommends: HerStoryTheater.org Our mission, through theater and the written word, is to shine bright lights in dark places on women and children in need of social justice and community support. We believe that if made personal, our audiences will respond to the social issues and presented and take action.   Chicagotap.org The Chicago Human Rhythm Project builds community through American tap and contemporary percussive arts in world class, innovative performance, education and outreach programs.  Classes are held throughout the year at the American Rhythm Center, primarily for adults. Every summer for the past 30 years youth and adults attend master classes at the annual summer tap festival.   MADDRhythms.com Master tappers teach love and respect for the art of tap dance.  These dancers pull from the tradition of the hoofers and annually teach adults and hundreds of kids over the summer and special weekends.  CompassionandChoices.org Compassion &amp; Choices improves care, expands options and empowers everyone to chart their end-of-life journey.
